On September 17, 14:30 (2:30 PM my time, perfect for me)

$530 6max Rebuy $530 + rebuy + addon = $1530 + 1000 incase of need of rebuy = $2500. If I do not rebuy, I will send the 1k back at break (Artanis11 can vouch for me that I've done this for him on multiple occasions)

If I lose $2500, we will be on AIM / MSN, your choice, and we can decide to continue or not, HH's will obviously be posted if rebuys are needed. (I play mostly rebuys and they are my bread and butter many people say, I do not gamble in rebuys over $11, but I will call off with 99 if two people are gambling everyhand for a stack *cupcake ne one*)

(I play 6max when not MTTing and will send you my graphs upon request, and have a few repuable sources such as Night01, SLog4[pG], quocy04 and gsr_01_integ that can vouch that I play a strong TAG style.

I will start with the rebuy and the largest stack possible, I play for first, I will give you HH's of any recent tournaments I've won.

I've won $30,000ish in tournaments up to $162 field in the last 30 days.

I Want 10% up to final table

20% FT

30% 3rd

40% 2th

50% 1st

$1530-$2500 investment, I have many reputable names such as artanis11, lostaccount, whamm! night01, nazgul and others who can vouch for my character upon me sending you your share of the first place prize.

First come first serve, I'm also willing to do this for any other tournaments over 1k on stars Anytime from Any staker. (I want to play the Super Tuesday weekly, PM Me!)

Thank you,
Good Luck,
Ryan

hey guys, whats up. been screwing around for quite awhile, moving around the country, basically just being a travelling bastard while taking time off from school.

decided it's time to start taking poker seriously again. moving to the city very very soon, and instead of grinding out 9-12$/hr for 40h/week, figured i should start taking poker seriously again. basically, i'm a lazy asshole and i really dislike work and i want to get the most utility out of anything as possible. so in the whole making-money regard, poker sounds like a good plan.

sadly, due to my huge fucking-around for the last while, my BR is in the shitter. currently at ~500. intend on playing nl25 until ~1000 then nl50. once i hit 1500, i'll start cashing out multiples of 200-400-whatever until i have my CC completely paid off and roughly 1000 in the bank.

once i have that shit all done, i'll take shots at nl100 once i hit ~3000.

am extremely unsure how long all of this will take, but i'm confident i'll be able to hit the 1500 plateau sooner rather than later and start cashing out/setting up the room in the city. will probably get a desk/new bed off of kajiji so it'll probably only cost ~400-500 for both, but i'd like to have another small chunk of change in the bank for random shit that comes up. already have internet/cable in the apartment and am paying for that shit too, so since i'm paying bills for an apartment i have yet to live in full-time, i might as well work my ass off for a week or two and head up there.

anyways, i'm gonna be updating pretty often i think. post graphs/whatever every other day just to keep myself motivated.

as of now, i'd consider myself successful if i played 5k hands a day.

anyways, later guys and gl

hands: 0
BR: 504.11

and I'm still not busto!

Played 2032 hands at NL2, 4 tables. Was listening to The Ricky Gervais Show on XFM throughout the entire session. It's impossible to tilt while listening to that.
Don't have any fancy graph or nothing to show you all since I'm using PT2. Will post my stats at the end of the month though, just to keep track of myself.
Anyway, $6.78 up which puts my BR at $56.66 for some reason.
Plan to take the step up to NL5 at $100, NL10 at $200 and keep taking 20 BI shots up until NL50.

Getting pretty pumped, I just moved into my new apartment. It's about a 10 minute walk to campus and it's a newer building. Going to have a hopefully awesome party this Saturday. I'm trying to be selective on whom I invite, but it'll probably just be a shit show at the end anyways.

As for poker, kinda put it on hold atm, really trying to do well in my classes, I spend about 3-4 hours in the library every day studying and doing homework. So far it is paying off huge, I'm crushing tests and homework.

I might try to put in a few sessions on the weekends or days I don't have much to do, but I'm worried I'll tilt and start raging 10 hour marathon sessions to breakeven etc.

Well hopefully I'll have pictures up Sunday with some sweet stories, maybe even some nudes (of the girls ofc...) if things play out well.

I shall leave you with this.

So last couple of sessions made my br smaller... std things like AA vs KK, KK vs AA, KK vs QQ etc.
Moved down, hello again nl5.
And when I moved, it was like "WTF LOL this game is easy".
1,6k hands later...

http://killme.prv1.net/owning.gif
and other two tables ~200bb each.
Today I played like 1k-1,5k hands but not so impressive, more like Lady Luck wanted to balance things up.
I'm looking forward to move up to nl10 before end of September.

On Friday I have exam so no poker for two days.

Stay tuned.

I'm currently taking a 1/2 shot over the next couple of session, I have a stop loss of "when I think I'm not playing good or lose 8bi". I played about an hour today for my first session of this and I ran pretty good and I think I played OK overall. I'll know for sure when I send the video to myth since he is going to take a look at it for me

A bit above EV too woo

In other news I'm taking a flight to nashville in 3 hours, going to be there about a week and I'm not sure if I will be playing much poker or not yet.. I'm going to visit a friend while he visits some of his friends? lol Looking forward to camping and fishing since I haven't done either for a loooong time.

Man I didn't know taking care of a family was so hard, time consuming.... and expensive.

Now i understand why most people is fucked up with their badly paid regular jobs, shit is expensive yo, everything is expensive and everything is spend, spend spend !! spend on health care, spend on food, spend on apartment, spend on swimming lessons, baby clothes, tv, cable, own clothes, gas, nanny, etc, etc, etc... and when u have 2 other lifes depending on you, its all x3!!

These past months has been crazy on me, they started off pretty nicely, with my first +100k month in poker, preceeded by 40k, 50k, 20k ones. My shots at 25/50 and the "little nosebleed" 50/100 hasn't been that great tho, and i've practiced great table selection for the most part, i could just never really get anything going.

Another problem with my ascension to higher stakes has been the lack of bankroll. It's not that i'm underolled per se. I have had +250k bankrolls more than once, even tho now my biggest one is barely 55k. The first time i reached 250k br, noiqpoker moved from ipoker to entraction, and I hated the software, so I cashed it all out, and never redeposited (I used 12k from another ipoker site I had money in to regrind back), few months later had 250k+ again, and i got "kicked" from the site I played at (long story, did nothing wrong tho) so again i was left with no main bankroll to play the biggest limits.

So now I have 4 or 5 "tiny" bankroll on various sites, 20k on FT, 35k stars, 55k ipoker, 20k some italian site. I am aware I should still be very thankful for my success, even tho it's by far a great one, the incredible thing about poker is that you can be the 10000th best player and still be winning good ammount of money for regular life standard.

I decided a long time ago that I wasn't gonna stay at one stake and was gonna move up the stakes every chance I got and try to reach the biggest tables i could reach, and I can only feel just a bit sad that I could never really try and play the 25/50 for long and try hard to beat it, and keep moving up. Of course no1 knows what could've happened, i could hit a very bad downswing and lose all my br on tilt or w/e, but still i would've loved to have at least one or two months to try. I feel very jelous of the likes of Deldar and nutshino to name a few, not because i don't think they deserve the success and I do, but because they can put a lot of hours into the game, very smoothly, and win tons while being concerned only of the poker game. I just feel like I've been unlucky and a bit lazy in this respect when I did have the time to put in insane ammount of time.

Now I have much more responsabilities and I have to spend much much more money, it's hard to dedicate as much time as I would like to see my bankroll grow. Now i'm actually looking for bussiness oportunities much more than trying to better my poker game.

Anyway I have to bath my little son now, it's actually pretty fun and he's a very amusing little guy, so i'll leave you guys with a couple brag pics

Just need to throw a small brag out there as my september has started off like shit so far.... was 15k below ev in my first 9 or 10k hands of 5 10, and down about that much total

So I dropped back to 3 6 for a bit to get some confidence and make some money... with school going on and everything being busy I need to stay away from big swings right now so today was nice

http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/2081/sept15th.jpg


Im also considering starting to train in Muay Thai kickboxing but its gonna take up a lot of time while I try and grind and go to school at the same time so I am still undecided

i've only been playing 1-2 hour/day this month. playing the $13 6max turbos.

I really want to get the $1k instant cash bonus, and to do this i need to make 62K fpps. So i need to make something like 4,445 fpps/day for the rest of this month; so i need to now be playing at the $25 6max turbos and play 127 sngs/day.

fml how am i gonna do that when i've just been playing 1-2 hours/day!!! Time to stop partying and start grinding imo.

I'm on study leave atm so what better way to avoid studying than to write a blog.

Wobbly recently bought an apartment, which resulted in the customary housewarming on the weekend. The biggest attraction was of course Deldar's appearance! Deldar was up in Syd for a Scrabble tourny so he dropped in for a bit of frivolity. We played some live 1/2 NLHE and NL Omaha and I ended up a buy-in or so, CRUSHED DELDAR! Other than that it was pretty tame, lots of Asians playing Wii haha. I then had about 2hrs sleep and played WCOOP with Wobbly which was just an epic fail on both our parts

September hitherto:
